Thank you for your question. I look forward to working with you to provide you the information you are seeking for educational purposes only.

• At some point the site will send you a phone call popup offering you a phone call, IT COSTS MORE MONEY AND the expert DID NOT SEND IT unless asked by customer, if you do not want the phone call DO NOT CLICK ON “CALL ME” or the popup, the expert is still working on answering you via chat even if you do not want the extra fee phone call, but please do not get upset with the expert about the request as it is not their fault.

• If there are any delays in my response it is because I am working on typing replies as well as typing to multiple customers at one time, you are not being ignored.

• If you are using text to send and receive answers PLEASE STOP and go to our mobile app or log into our website at http://www.justanswer.com, as we have technical issues with the text replies which can lead to customers not getting all communications properly.

No, if you get an apartment while pending asylum you would not impact your chances of getting your asylum granted.

As long as you are not working without an Employment Authorization Document and can prove where the funds for the apartment came from you will be okay with USCIS.

Please do not forget to leave positive feedback by clicking on the 5 stars at the top of your page (bottom on the App), as the experts are not employees of the site and get no credit for spending time with customers unless they leave positive feedback. If you think you have given the expert credit for their time just by paying the site fee, YOU DID NOT it was only a deposit, sorry for that confusion caused by the site. Even if you have a membership, you still have to leave positive feedback on every new question, it does not cost you anything more, or we experts get zero credit when you do not leave positive feedback each question. Thank you.
